That's disappointing because it's going to screw up a lot of routes at several of our events up and down the BRP this year. But it's also encouraging all at the same time because improvements are being made to this gem of a road.

Thanks for the heads up.

Not entirely bad (for me).  Looks like the section between NC 18 & 16 will be open.  Wasn't planning to ride north of 18, which will be closed, and will adjust my route south of 16 to 221.

Thanks so much for the head's up.

Too bad sections of the BRP is closed but the alternate route you have picked isn't too tough to deal with ;)   
Ride safe, TM
